Voorts uitte de Raad zijn voldoening over de totstandkoming van een bilaterale overeenkomst ad referendum met de Verenigde Staten inzake versnelling van de invoering van het tijdens de Uruguay-ronde overeengekomen nulrecht voor 'bruine' gedistilleerde dranken en invoering van een nulrecht voor andere gedistilleerde dranken. handel over de Wat de Overeenkomst inzake informatietechnologie (ITA) betreft wordt gewezen op de Nieuwe Transatlantische Agenda die de EU en de VS op 3 december 1995 zijn overeengekomen tijdens de EU/VS-top in Madrid. De Agenda stelt onder meer: 'Gezien het belang van de informatiemaatschappij ondernemen wij thans specifieke pogingen om een overeenkomst te sluiten*. De Transatlantische Ondernemersdialoog, het overeenkomstige parallelforum van het bedrijfsleven, onderstreepte deze politieke toezegging door te verklaren dat een overweldigende meerderheid van mening is dat een verbintenis om uiterlijk in januari 2000, maar liefst eerder, alle tarieven af te schaffen onderdeel moet zijn van het IT A-pakket. informatietechnologie inzake Na verkennend overleg met een aantal derde landen en besprekingen in het Comité Artikel 113 stelde de Commissie de Raad op 22 oktober 1996 voor een besluit te nemen om onderhandelingen met derde landen te openen over sluiting van een overeenkomst inzake informatietechnologie. Dit besluit werd op 15 november 1996 door de Raad goedgekeurd. Na plurilaterale onderhandelingen werd in Singapore op 13 december 1996 een Verklaring afgelegd door de Ministers van vijftien WTO-leden en kandidaten voor toetreding (Australië, Canada, EU, Hong Kong, IJsland, Indonesië, Japan, Korea, Liechtenstein, Noorwegen, Singapore, Taiwan, Turkije, Verenigde Staten, Zwitserland). De verklaring stelt als doel de afschaffing (in vier fasen) van de tarieven, uiterlijk in 2000, voor de informatietechnologieproducten die in de bijlagen expliciet zijn vermeld. Belangrijk is met name punt 4 van de modaliteiten bij de Verklaring: 'De deelnemers komen bijeen zodra dit praktisch mogelijk is, echter uiterlijk op I april 1997, om te bekijken hoevee! aanvaardingen zijn binnengekomen en te beoordelen welke conclusies daaruit moeten worden getrokken. De deelnemers leggen de maatregelen waarin de Verklaring voorziet ten uitvoer, mits een aantal deelnemers dat ca. 90% van de wereldhandel1 informatietechnologieproducten vertegenwoordigt tot dat moment kennis heeft gegeven van aanvaarding, en mits door de deelnemers overeenstemming is bereikt over de fasering. Bij de beoordeling van de vraag of de maatregelen waarin de Verklaring voorziet moeten worden uitgevoerd, kunnen de deelnemers, indien het aandeel in de wereldhandel van de deelnemers enigszins lager is dan 90%, in aanmerking nemen in welke mate wordt deelgenomen door de staten of afzonderlijke douanegebieden waarmee zij in deze producten het meest intensief handel drijven. Op de bijeenkomst wordt door de deelnemers vastgesteld of aan deze criteria is voldaan. ' in Op 31 januari 1997 werden de plurilaterale technische besprekingen waartoe de Verklaring had opgeroepen afgerond. Over het productbereik werd gesproken, maar de oorspronkelijke bijlage bij de Ministeriële Verklaring werd niet gewijzigd. Overeengekomen werd dat de eerste fase van het overleg over uitbreiding van het 1 Dit percentage wordt berekend door het Secretariaat van de WTO op basis van de meest recente gegevens die ten tijde van de bijeenkomst beschikbaar zijn. productbereik op 1 oktober 1997 zal beginnen. Voorts werd ad referendum overeenstemming bereikt over de verzoeken om verlengde fasering van enkele van de oorspronkelijke ondertekenaars. Dit waren Indonesië, Korea en Taiwan. Nieuw-Zeeland werd deelnemer zonder te verzoeken om verlengde fasering, en Costa Rica werd deelnemer nadat met de andere deelnemers overeenstemming werd bereikt over het verzoek om verlengde fasering. De Raad besloot tijdens een bijzondere zitting op 13 december 1996 in Singapore dat, voorafgaand aan de toetsing die vóór 1 april 1997 plaats moet vinden, een afzonderlijk Raadsbesluit vereist is om de overeenkomst definitief te aanvaarden, zulks om de Gemeenschap aan haar toezeggingen te binden. Vóór dit besluit kan worden genomen, dienen er echter voldoende deelnemers te zijn, en dient over de fasering overeenstemming te zijn bereikt. Hierop vooruitlopend is bijgaand ontwerp-besluit opgesteld, uitgaande van de veronderstelling dat aan deze beide criteria is voldaan. Als tegen eind maart blijkt dat zulks niet het geval is, dient de zaak opnieuw te worden bekeken. Wat gedistilleerde dranken betreft is de Commissie van oordeel dat de overeenkomst die in de vorm van een Memorandum van met de Verenigde staten overeenstemming een aanzienlijke uitbreiding van de exportmogelijkheden van de EU betekent. De Commissie blijft ernaar streven ook andere partijen bij deze overeenkomst te betrekken. is bereikt De Commissie dient hierbij twee voorstellen voor besluiten van de Raad in. 2 Voorstel voor een Besluit van de Raad 97/0082 (ACC> betreffende afschaffing van de rechten op informatietechnologieproducten DE RAAD VAN DE EUROPESE UNIE, Gelet op het Verdrag tot oprichting van de Europese Gemeenschap, inzonderheid op artikel 113 in samenhang met artikel 228, lid 2, eerste zin, Gezien het voorstel van de Commissie, Overwegende dat in het kader van de Nieuwe Transatlantische Agenda, die tijdens de EU/VS-top van 13 december 1995 in Madrid werd goedgekeurd, besloten werd te streven naar sluiting van een overeenkomst inzake informatietechnologie; Overwegende dat de Raad, naar aanleiding van de rapportage van de Commissie over de verkennende besprekingen die zij met derde landen had gevoerd, op 16 november 1996 besloot onderhandelingen te openen met derde landen met het oog op sluiting van een overeenkomst inzake informatietechnologie; hechtte Overwegende dat de Europese Gemeenschap op 13 december 1996 in Singapore haar in aan goedkeuring inzake informatietechnologieproducten; dat deze verklaring een aantal noodzakelijke voorwaarden stelt voor de tenuitvoerlegging van de afschaffing van de tarieven voor informatietechnologieproducten; dat aan deze voorwaarden thans is voldaan, Verklaring handel de de BESLUIT: Artikel 1 De Overeenkomst in de vorm van een Ministeriële Verklaring inzake de handel in informatietechnologie, opgesteld in Singapore op 13 december 1996, wordt namens de Gemeenschap goedgekeurd. De tekst van de Overeenkomst is aan dit besluit gehecht. Artikel 2 Overeenkomstig punt 4 van de bijlage bij de verklaring: i) neemt de Raad ervan nota dat deelnemers die gezamenlijk circa 90% van de wereldhandel in informatietechnologieproducten voor hun rekening nemen van hun aanvaarding kennis hebben gegeven; ii) hecht de Raad namens de Gemeenschap zijn goedkeuring aan het verzoek om fasering dat door een aantal deelnemers aan de Overeenkomst inzake informatietechnologie is ingediend. 3 Artikel 3 De Raad machtigt de Commissie de aangehechte wijzigingen op de Lijst van de Europese Gemeenschap bij de Wereldhandelsorganisatie in te dienen, teneinde de douanerechten overeenkomstig de Verklaring te consolideren en af te schaffen. Artikel 4 De Voorzitter van de Raad wordt gemachtigd de persoon aan te wijzen die de bevoegdheid heeft de Overeenkomst / het Protocol te ondertekenen teneinde de Gemeenschap te binden. Gedaan te Brussel, Voor de Raad De Voorzitter 13. 12. 1996 Ministeriële verklaring inzake de handel in informatietechnologieproducten De Ministers, Vertegenwoordigende de volgende leden van de Wereldhandelsorganisatie (hierna ' WTO' genoemd) alsmede staten of afzonderlijke douanegebieden die de procedure voor toetreding tot de WTO doorlopen, welke in Singapore zijn overeengekomen de wereldwijde handel in informatietechnologieproducten uit te breiden en die ruim [80]% van de wereldhandel in deze producten voor hun rekening nemen (hierna 'de partijen' genoemd): Australië Canada Europese Gemeenschappen Hongkong IJsland Indonesië Japan Korea Noorwegen Singapore Taiwan Turkije Verenigde Staten Zwitserland1 Gelet op de sleutelrol die informatietechnologieproducten spelen bij de ontwikkeling van de informatie-industrie en de dynamische expansie van de wereldeconomie, Erkennende dat dient te worden gestreefd naar verhoging van de levensstandaard en naar uitbreiding van de productie van en de handel in goederen, Wensende de wereldwijde handel in informatietechnologieproducten maximaal te liberaliseren, Wensende de permanente technologische ontwikkeling van de informatietechnologie industrie te bevorderen, Gelet op de positieve bijdrage van de informatietechnologie tot de wereldwijde economische groei en welvaart, Overeengekomen de resultaten van deze onderhandelingen ten uitvoer te leggen, wat bijkomende concessies inhoudt naast die welke zijn vervat in de lijsten die zijn gehecht aan het Protocol van Marrakesh bij de Algemene Overeenkomst betreffende Tarieven en Handel 1994, en Erkennende dat de resultaten van deze onderhandelingen tevens betrekking hebben op enkele concessies die zijn aangeboden in de onderhandelingen welke tot het opstellen van de aan het Protocol van Marrakesh gehechte lijsten geleid hebben, Verklaren als volgt: 1. De handelsregeling van iedere partij dient zodanig te worden aangepast dat de mogelijkheden voor markttoegang voor informatietechnologieproducten worden uitgebreid. 2. Overeenkomstig de in de bijlage bij deze Verklaring vervatte modaliteiten worden de douanerechten en andere rechten en heffingen van welke aard dan ook, in de zin van artikel II, lid 1, onder b), van de Algemene Overeenkomst betreffende tarieven en i Namens de douane-unie Zwitserland en Liechtenstein. ^ handel 1994, door elke partij geconsolideerd en afgeschaft ten aanzien van het volgende: a. alle producten die zijn of kunnen worden ingedeeld onder de in aanhangsel A bij de bijlage bij deze Verklaring opgenomen artikelen van het Geharmoniseerd Systeem; en b. alle producten die in aanhangsel B bij de bijlage bij deze Verklaring zijn opgenomen, ongeacht of deze producten ook voorkomen in aanhangsel A; door middel van gelijke verlagingen van de douanerechten, te beginnen in 1997 en te voltooien in 2000; hierbij wordt erkend dat het in een beperkt aantal gevallen noodzakelijk kan zijn de verlaging van de rechten over een groter aantal jaren te spreiden en het aantal producten waarop dit betrekking heeft vóór de tenuitvoerlegging uit te breiden. 3. De Ministers uiten hun voldoening over het grote aantal producten dat in de aanhangsels bij de bijlage bij deze Verklaring kon worden opgenomen. Zij dragen hun ambtenaren op al het mogelijke te doen om de plurilaterale technische besprekingen in Genève op basis van deze modaliteiten uiterlijk op 31 januari 1997 af te ronden, teneinde tenuitvoerlegging van deze Verklaring door een zo groot mogelijk aantal deelnemers te verzekeren. 4. De Ministers verzoeken de Ministers van andere lidstaten van de WTO en van staten of afzonderlijke douanegebieden die momenteel de procedure voor toetreding tot de WTO doorlopen, om aan hun ambtenaren eveneens dergelijke instructies uit te vaardigen, zodat zij kunnen deelnemen aan de onder punt 3 bedoelde technische besprekingen en ten volle deel kunnen hebben aan de uitbreiding van de wereldhandel in informatietechnologieproducten. » Bijlagen: Modaliteiten en producten Aanhangsel A: GS-posten Aanhangsel B: producten Bijlage Modaliteiten en producten Elk lid van de Wereldhandelsorganisatie, of een staat of afzonderlijk douanegebied die de procedure voor toetreding tot de WTO doorloopt, kan aan de uitbreiding van de wereldhandel in informatietechnologieproducten deelnemen overeenkomstig de volgende modaliteiten: 1. Elke deelnemer brengt de maatregelen die in punt 2 van de Verklaring zijn omschreven onder in zijn lijsten van concessies bij de Algemene Overeenkomst betreffende Tarieven en Handel 1994, en bovendien (ofwel onder de eigen tariefpost ofwel onder de 6-cijferige post van het Geharmoniseerde Systeem (GS) 1996) in het officiële tarief of eventuele andere gepubliceerde versies van het tarief, afhankelijk van de versie die doorgaans door importeurs en exporteurs wordt gebruikt. Elke deelnemer die geen lid is van de WTO legt deze maatregelen autonoom ten uitvoer en brengt deze onder in de WTO-lijst inzake markttoegang voor goederen. 2. Hiertoe doet elke deelnemer zo spoedig mogelijk, doch uiterlijk op 1 maart 1997, aan alle andere deelnemers een document toekomen met a) de details betreffende de wijze waarop de passende tariefbehandeling in de WTO-lijst van concessies wordt ingebracht, en b) een overzicht van de GS-posten voor de in aanhangsel B vermelde producten. Deze documenten zullen uiterlijk op 1 april 1997 op basis van consensus worden geëvalueerd en goedgekeurd. Zodra de evaluatie van een dergelijk document is voltooid, wordt het aangemeld als wijziging op de lijst van de desbetreffende deelnemer, overeenkomstig het besluit van 26 maart 1980 betreffende procedures voor wijziging en rectificatie van de lijsten van tariefconcessies (BISD 27S/25). a. De concessies die een deelnemer tot wijziging van zijn lijst van concessies voorstelt dienen tot consolidering en afschaffing van alle douanerechten en andere op informatietechnologieproducten. Een en ander geschiedt op de volgende wijze: van welke heffingen, rechten ook, aard of i. indien door de deelnemers niet anders wordt overeengekomen, worden de douanerechten afgeschaft door middel van verlaging van het recht in gelijke stappen. Tenzij de deelnemers anders overeenkomen, consolideert elke deelnemer uiterlijk op 1 juli 1997 alle tarieven voor de in de aanhangsels genoemde producten. De eerste verlaging van het tarief treedt uiterlijk op 1 juli 1997 in werking, de tweede uiterlijk op 1 januari 1998 en de derde uiterlijk op 1 januari 1999; de afschaffing van de douanerechten dient uiterlijk op 1 januari 2000 te zijn voltooid. De deelnemers komen overeen te bevorderen dat de douanerechten vóór deze tijdstippen autonoom worden afgeschaft. Het verlaagde recht wordt in elke fase afgerond op de eerste decimaal; ii. de afschaffing van alle andere rechten en heffingen in de zin van artikel II, lid 1, onder b), van de Algemene Overeenkomst dient uiterlijk op 1 juli 1997 te zijn afgerond; uitzonderingen hierop zijn mogelijk indien deze zijn vermeld in het document van de deelnemer dat ter evaluatie aan de andere deelnemers wordt voorgelegd. b. De wijzigingen in de lijst die door een deelnemer worden voorgesteld ter uitvoering van de consolidatie en afschaffing van de douanerechten op informatietechnologieproducten dienen op de volgende wijze te worden verricht: 7 i. met betrekking tot de GS-posten in aanhangsel A worden waar nodig subposten gecreëerd in het nationale tarief zoals dat in de lijst is opgenomen; ii. met betrekking tot de producten in aanhangsel B wordt bij de lijst een bijlage verstrekt waarin alle producten in aanhangsel B zijn opgenomen; in de bijlage worden de volledige GS-posten voor deze producten vermeld, ofwel in de vorm van het nationale tarief ofwel in de vorm van de 6-cijferige GS- code. Elke deelnemer brengt de wijzigingen die hij heeft voorgesteld, zodra deze in werking zijn getreden, aan in zijn eigen nationale tariefstelsel. De deelnemers komen periodiek bijeen, onder auspiciën van de Raad voor de Handel in Goederen, ter beoordeling van het overzicht van producten in de aanhangsels. Beoordeeld wordt of de technologische ontwikkelingen, de ervaring met de toepassing van de tariefconcessies of wijzigingen van de GS-nomenclatuur aanleiding geven tot het opnemen van nieuwe producten in de aanhangsels. Overleg wordt gepleegd tot informatietechnologieproducten. Dit overleg laat de rechten en plichten uit hoofde van de WTO-overeenkomst onverlet. handelsbelemmeringen met niet-tarifaire betrekking over De deelnemers komen bijeen zodra dit praktisch mogelijk is, echter uiterlijk op 1 april 1997, om te bekijken hoeveel aanvaardingen zijn binnengekomen en te beoordelen welke conclusies daaruit moeten worden getrokken. De deelnemers leggen de maatregelen waarin de Verklaring voorziet ten uitvoer, mits een aantal deelnemers dat ca. 90% van de wereldhandel2 in informatietechnologieproducten vertegenwoordigt tot dat moment kennis heeft gegeven van aanvaarding, en mits door de deelnemers overeenstemming is bereikt over de fasering. Bij de beoordeling van de vraag of de maatregelen waarin de Verklaring voorziet moeten worden uitgevoerd, kunnen de deelnemers, indien het aandeel in de wereldhandel van de deelnemers enigszins lager is dan 90%, in aanmerking nemen in welke mate wordt deelgenomen door de staten of afzonderlijke douanegebieden waarmee zij in deze producten het meest intensief handel drijven. Op de bijeenkomst wordt door de deelnemers vastgesteld of aan deze criteria is voldaan. ten aanzien van de De deelnemers komen zo vaak als nodig bijeen, doch uiterlijk op 30 september 1997, om eventuele onderlinge afwijkingen indeling van informatietechnologieproducten te onderzoeken; prioriteit hebben daarbij de producten in aanhangsel B. De deelnemers komen overeen, dat zij er gezamenlijk naar zullen streven om waar dit nuttig is tot een gemeenschappelijke indeling voor deze producten te komen binnen de bestaande GS-nomenclatuur; daarbij wordt rekening gehouden met de interpretaties en uitspraken van de Internationale Douaneraad (ook bekend als Werelddouaneorganisatie (WCO)). In gevallen dat er een afwijkende indeling blijft bestaan, overwegen de deelnemers bij de WCO een gezamenlijk voorstel in te dienen om de bestaande GS-nomenclatuur aan te passen, ook als deze maatregel in strijd is met de Algemene Overeenkomst. De deelnemers zijn zich ervan bewust dat artikel XXIII van de Algemene Overeenkomst hierop van toepassing is, in die gevallen dat voordelen voor een deelnemer die WTO-lid is direct of indirect worden uitgehold of tenietgedaan door tenuitvoerlegging van deze Verklaring, als gevolg van de toepassing van een Dit percentage wordt berekend door het secretariaat van de WTO op basis van de meest recente gegevens die ten tijde van de bijeenkomst beschikbaar zijn.

Wanneer een deelnemer verzoekt om overleg Over de bovengenoemde verbintenissen, wordt dit verzoek door elke deelnemer in welwillende overweging genomen. Dit overleg laat de rechten en verplichtingen uit hoofde van de WTO-overeenkomst onverlet. 8. Deelnemers die optreden onder auspiciën van de Raad voor de Handel in Goederen stellen andere leden van de WTO alsmede staten of afzonderlijke douanegebieden die de procedure voor toetreding tot de WTO doorlopen in kennis van deze modaliteiten, en plegen overleg om de deelname van de laatstgenoemden aan de uitbreiding van de handel te in bevorderen. informatietechnologieproducten op basis van deze Verklaring 9. Voor de toepassing van deze modaliteiten wordt verstaan onder 'deelnemer': de leden van de WTO dan wel staten of afzonderlijke douanegebieden die de procedure voor toetreding tot de WTO doorlopen, die het in lid 2 genoemde document uiterlijk op 1 maart 1997 hebben overgelegd. 10. Deze bijlage staat open voor aanvaarding door alle leden van de WTO en alle staten of afzonderlijke douanegebieden die de procedure voor toetreding tot de WTO doorlopen. Van de aanvaarding wordt de Directeur-generaal schriftelijk in kennis gesteld; deze stelt alle deelnemers hiervan in kennis. 9 Page 6 There are two attachments to the Annex.

Voorstel voor een besluit van de Raad betreffende afschaffing van de rechten op informatietechnologieproducten en bepaalde gedistilleerde dranken. 2. 3. Begrotingslijn: hoofdstuk 12, artikel 120 Juridische grondslag: artikel 113 4. Omschrijving: Het voorstel vloeit voort uit het besluit van de Raad om onderhandelingen te openen met derde landen over sluiting van een Overeenkomst inzake Informatietechnologie (ITA), en de politieke toezegging van de ministers op de Ministeriële Conferentie in Singapore op 13 december 1996. voorstel Het op informatietechnologieproducten en bepaalde gedistilleerde dranken, te voltooien in 2000. afschaffing rechten beoogt van de de 5. Aard van de opbrengsten: derving van opbrengsten uit rechten op uit derde landen ingevoerde producten. 6. Wijziging van de opbrengsten: De afschaffing van de rechten op de invoer van informatietechnologieproducten geschiedt in vier gelijke jaarlijkse fasen, van 1 juli 1997 tot 1 januari 2000. De berekening van de opbrengstenderving is als volgt: het verschil tussen het overeengekomen tarief van de Uruguay-ronde (voor elk jaar) en het tarief dat in het kader van de ITA is overeengekomen (voor hetzelfde jaar), toegepast op het volume van de invoer in 1995 (zie bijlage). Het gaat bij de derving als gevolg van de ITA dus uitsluitend om de extra inkomstenderving De resulterende cijfers zijn als volgt: 01. 07. 1997 01. 01. 1998 01. 01. 1999 01. 01. 2000 242,6 miljoen ecu 643,3 miljoen ecu 891,3 miljoen ecu 1241,8 miljoen ecu Voor gedistilleerde dranken is de inkomstenderving als volgt (op basis van de invoer in EG 15 in 1995 en gebaseerd op ad-valorem-equivalenten (ave) voor alle invoer uit landen met een meestbegunstigingsstatus in 1995): 01. 07. 1997 01. 01. 1998 01. 01. 1999 01. 01. 2000 01. 01. 2001 01. 01. 2002 01. 01. 2003 0,5 miljoen ecu 1,6 miljoen ecu 2,0 miljoen ecu 2,5 miljoen ecu 1,9 miljoen ecu 1,2 miljoen ecu 0,7 miljoen ecu Het jaargemiddelde bedraagt 1,625 miljoen ecu (over 6. 5 jaar), in totaal 10,5 miljoen ecu.
